Trevor Davis on Creating a Newsletter

Trevor Davis has written an article on creating an online newsletter with EE:

I had to create an “online newsletter” that had issues that were made up of multiple articles. I ended up creating two separate weblogs: one for each issue, and one for individual articles. In the issues weblog, there was a Playa custom field which could be used to pick the individual articles to be published in that issue. But, another one of Brandon Kelly’s fabulous extensions, FieldFrame, seems to be a much better choice for creating this functionality.

The blog entry is an excellent example of the flexibility of EE and even comes with a great demo.
